Jessica Rink has been with Bank of America since  August 2007. Currently she works as a CSR Market Specialist.

Bank of America associates are committed to the community and have demonstrated their commitment by increasing their United Way Silicon Valley giving campaign contributions year over year.

During the 2010 campaign, associates contributed $120,728.05, representing a 117% increase since 2008.

"Part of my role as a Market Specialist includes managing the overall annual United Way Silicon Valley giving campaign. One thing I’ve noticed, and a fact that I’m quite inspired by, is that during these particularly difficult economic times our associates have given more each year--more of their time, more of their resources, and more of their advocacy. As the economy declined, our associates’ commitment increased. That is one of the many reasons I’m so proud to work for Bank of America, and with so many passionate and community-focused colleagues. The United Way Silicon Valley campaign is important to our associates because we know exactly the kind of impact each donation can make within our local community." -Jessica Rink
